This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of community health worker (CHW) missions on maternal health outcomes in rural southern Ethiopia.
Conducted a scorecard evaluation using standardized surveys.
Assessed changes through a pre- and post-intervention design.
Collected data from 10 randomly selected villages administered by CHWs.
CHW missions increased antenatal care uptake by 25% (95% CI: 10%, 40%).
Improved maternal health indicators were observed post-intervention.
Findings suggest potential scalability for CHW-based interventions.
